[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 507459, member: 5302"] Yes. Yes. They're not insane. They just do something different, not better. It goes against 99% of what folks all over the world think's needed for best accuracy. Accuracy's repeatability in the hardware. Doesn't matter how much it moves when the shots fired. As long as it move the same way, excellent repeatability will happen; shots knot up in tiny groups way downrange. Check this link out for a top level Win. 70 based Palma rifle abilities then compare it to current benchrest long range aggregate scores fired in matches as well as records: [url=http://www.accurateshooter.com/guns-of-week/gunweek059/]Whidden’s Winning .308 Palma Rifle within AccurateShooter.com[/url] If that's not convincing, I'll post a .41 MOA 20-shot groups fired at 800 yards from my Palma rifle. Its ammo had up to 3 thousandths runout, full length sized cases and the original Sierra Palma bullet seated in WCC60 cases put in a standard SAAMI spec'd chamber with a bit shorter lead for that shorter bullet to touch when chambered. Those cases fit that chamber like a turd in a punch bowl. [/QUOTE]
